This was a bug, A.B.C.D is the correct format for
spam-blackhole-good-server-regex.  Thanks!  It should be fixed in CVS.

Because of autoloading, you just need to say 

(spam-initialize)

in your setup, instead of all the spam-install-hooks/require spam.el
stuff.  That's it, it's meant to be simple.

The same thing was done for the gnus-registry.el loading with the
gnus-registry-initialize function.

Thanks
